Lactation consultant home visits in Atlanta
An IBCLC comes to your home for hands‑on feeding support in the early newborn weeks. Home visits are for babies under 1 month old, inside the perimeter and in close northern suburbs. If a home visit isn’t the right fit, the same team sees you at our Sandy Springs center or virtually.

Home visits are staffed by our IBCLCs. If you need a prescription, for example for mastitis, your IBCLC can have one of our nurse practitioners call it in. If something needs an in‑person medical exam, a visit with a nurse practitioner IBCLC at our Sandy Springs center is often the better fit. All of our care is overseen by two board‑certified Medical Directors, including one of only three physicians in Georgia board certified in breastfeeding and lactation medicine (NABBLM‑C).
Does insurance cover a home visit?
